Celebrating the
launch of the brand
new Captain Morgan
Sliced Apple Spiced
Rum, the brand
handed the creative
reins to a group of
some of the country’s
most talented street
artists with the objective
“to celebrate their
communities and all
the things that make
it unique and special
in their home cities
across the U.S.”
Of course, the
Bronx made the cut
– specifi cally E. 175h
Street and Webster
Avenue in Mount
Hope.
That’s where city
based artist Mason
Eve got to work on
the corner wall in the
west Bronx.
A second mural
was done in Queens at
Metropolitan Avenue
and 70th Road as well.
